There is one (hope its still there) in Erina. Behind Fountain Plaza, corner of Karalta Rd and Iliya Ave (just off the big round-about on the Entrance road (now called The Central Coast highway).

There is also one inside the Erina Fair Shopping centre.

There was also one on the roof top of Wesfield Tuggerah.

But apart from these 3, i cant think of any others. Yeh, the coast seems short of car wash's, short of other things like a nice weekend night life _2: .

Car Lovers Lakehaven- Its the one i use

and there is a new one in the industrial estate in morrisset- its a good carwash and pretty isolated in the estate- out of the way though

there is also one up at Belmont in Newie on the northern end of the coast

also handwash guys at Longjetty at the Metro servo and upstairs at Tuggerah Westfields

*most of these have already been mentioned

due to owning a black car on the coast i have used all the central coast car washes several times ,i find morriset the best by far ,everything works well including the vending machine you can even use your credit card in the wash machine and i wash mine with a sponge with plenty of time as there is hardly a line up due to being pretty isolated.
i find the car lovers washes hopeless as there machines barely work never have decent amount of soap coming through the gun and the lake haven one always totally vandalised.no vending machine and your money only lasts half as long due to the cost of vandalism
